Review Request are OPen
I am so glad you're looking at this page! I love working with authors, publishers, and tour companies to help share stories that deserve to be seen. I review books across all genres and my favorites depend on my mood/the day. I like to provide honest reviews with a focus in honesty and reader-centered feedback.
My reviews are always honest and personal. To me I see books at little mini-vacations, because lord knows I cannot afford real ones. I am never here to tear down a book because everyone has their own taste. While a book may not be for me, it may be for someone else. I enjoy atmosphere, emotions, character dynamics, good story telling, and that all plays into how I feel about the books I read. My review are less 'formal critique' and more 'this is how I felt like to read this'.
★★★★★ - LOVED IT! This book had me locked in and I am probably going to be thinking about it long after I finish. Recommending it to anyone who asks for recommendations and probably talking about it wayyyy too much.
★★★★☆ - I really liked it! This was a solid read. I was engaged and I recommended it. It just didn't quite hit favorite status.
★★★☆☆ - It was good / okay! I liked parts of it, but something didn't fully click for me. Still worth reading, just not something that I would pick up to read again.
★★☆☆☆ - Not for me! I struggled to stay interested or connected, but I finished it. There might be good elements, but overall it didn't work for me.
★☆☆☆☆ - I didn't enjoy it! This one didn't land at all, and that being said, someone else might absolutely love it. That's okay. Nobody is going to like everything they read.
☆☆☆☆☆ - DNF - I don't review DNF books, but if someone sends me a copy and wants me to post a review regardless (after I speak with them) I will give feedback on the parts that I read. I would rather NOT review DNF books, so please refrain from asking me to, please?
To my Author's - You've already done the hard part. You've poured your heart and soul into your book(s) and that matters more than anything. My goal as a review is to enjoy your hard work and share that experience with others so that they may pick up your work and enjoy it as well. Please feel free to reach out.
